2011 PRINCESS YACHTS Compare

Built by Princess Yachts in 2011, Princess 78 MY is a 24.1-metre motor yacht offering a well-balanced combination of onboard comfort, practical layout and a strong presence on the water. Powered by twin Caterpillar C32 Acert diesel engines producing 2 x 1,622 hp, this glass fibre hull delivers reliable performance across a wide range of conditions. The walnut matt-finished interior woodwork gives the yacht a warm, refined atmosphere throughout all areas.

Aboard, five staterooms accommodate owner and guests in comfortable privacy. The master cabin is fitted with a 42" Samsung TV, a Bose DVD centre and two safes, while the VIP cabin and starboard guest cabin each feature their own 22" Samsung TV and DVD player. The main salon is appointed with cream-fabric sofas, a glasses bar, an additional fridge and a large 55" Samsung TV. The galley is well equipped with Miele appliances including a fridge with separate freezer, a microwave and a two-burner ceramic hob. A Bosch washer/dryer unit is located in the lower deck corridor, with a second unit in the crew mess area. The heads feature natural marble finishes, and a watermaker is installed aboard.

The exterior spaces are equally well considered. The cockpit features a bar with sink and fridge, and a foldable teak table. Teak is laid on the side decks, bow deck, sidewalks and the hi-lo swimming platform. On the flybridge, owners and guests benefit from a wet bar with sink, ice-maker and LeMax barbecue, a hydraulic bimini top, two chaise lounges, a foldable table, sunbathing cushions and an Opacmare crane. Navigation equipment includes a Furuno open array radar, two Furuno NavNet 3D displays, Raymarine autopilot, TriData, and SIMRAD VHF on both helms. A Zodiac YL 380 Deluxe tender with a four-stroke Yamaha 40 hp engine completes the package. Bow and stern thrusters facilitate manoeuvring in port.
